Six miles of Hines Drive will close to vehicle traffic on Saturdays through Sept. 24 for the Saturday in the Park program

From 9 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. on Saturdays, visitors can walk, run, skate or cycle safely along Hines Drive. Hines will be shut down to vehicular traffic from Ann Arbor Trail to Outer Drive so that guests have the opportunity to participate in their favorite activities in a vehicle-free environment.

“Saturday in the Park is a great program because it provides our community with an opportunity to enjoy outdoor activities in a beautiful and serene setting without traffic safety being a concern,” said Beverly Watts, Department of Public Services interim director.

All ages are encouraged to participate. Parking is available at the Hines Park Helms Haven Area (Hines Drive, west of Outer Drive) and Hines Park Nankin Mills Picnic Area (Hines Drive, east of Ann Arbor Trail).
